SID Statements
==============

sid
---

Declares a new SID identifier in the current namespace.

**Statement definition:**

```secil
    (sid sid_id)
```

**Where:**








sid
The sid keyword.


sid_id
The sid identifier.




**Examples:**

These examples show three [`sid`](cil_sid_statements.md#sid) declarations:

```secil
    (sid kernel)
    (sid security)
    (sid igmp_packet)
```

sidorder
--------

Defines the order of [sid](#sid)'s. This is a mandatory statement when SIDs are defined. Multiple [`sidorder`](cil_sid_statements.md#sidorder) statements declared in the policy will form an ordered list.

**Statement definition:**

```secil
    (sidorder (sid_id ...))
```

**Where:**








sidorder
The sidorder keyword.


sid_id
One or more sid identifiers.




**Example:**

This will produce an ordered list of "`kernel security unlabeled`"

```secil
    (sid kernel)
    (sid security)
    (sid unlabeled)
    (sidorder (kernel security))
    (sidorder (security unlabeled))
```

sidcontext
----------

Associates an SELinux security [context](#context) to a previously declared [`sid`](cil_sid_statements.md#sid) identifier.

**Statement definition:**

```secil
    (sidcontext sid_id context_id)
```

**Where:**








sidcontext
The sidcontext keyword.


sid_id
A single previously declared sid identifier.


context_id
A previously declared context identifier or an anonymous security context (user role type levelrange), the range MUST be defined whether the policy is MLS/MCS enabled or not.




**Examples:**

This shows two named security context examples plus an anonymous context:

```secil
    ; Two named context:
    (sid kernel)
    (context kernel_context (u r process low_low))
    (sidcontext kernel kernel_context)

    (sid security)
    (context security_context (u object_r process low_low))
    (sidcontext security security_context)

    ; An anonymous context:
    (sid unlabeled)
    (sidcontext unlabeled (u object_r ((s0) (s0))))
```
